Insurance Fund
9 days ago · Updated on

Zoomex uses the Insurance Fund to decrease the possibility of Auto-Deleveraging: In the event of Liquidation, if the liquidated order is closed at a price worse than the bankrupt price, Zoomex will use the balance of the Insurance Fund to cover the gap. If the Insurance Fund is insufficient, Auto-Deleveraging will be triggered. Mechanism of the Insurance Fund During liquidation, the balance of the Insurance Fund will increase/decrease depending on the price difference between the final Liquidation Price and the Bankruptcy Price of that liquidated position.

When liquidations can be executed in the market at a price better than the Bankruptcy Price, the remaining margin will be added to the Insurance Fund.

Vice versa, when the Liquidation Price is worse than the Bankruptcy Price, the contract loss will be covered by the Insurance Fund.

For example: A trader has a long position on BTCUSD with the liquidation price at 7,000 USD and Bankruptcy price at 6,950 USD. Once Mark Price hits 7,000 USD, this position will be liquidated. If this position can be liquidated at any price higher than 6,950 USD, for example, USD 6980, the remaining margin in BTC will be contributed to the Insurance Fund.

Reciprocally, if the final execution price is lower than 6,950 USD, for example, 6,930 USD, the Insurance Fund will be used to cover the contract loss.
Depleted insurance fund If the Insurance Fund is insufficient to cover the gap between the final execution price and Bankruptcy Price, the entire liquidation will be taken over by an Auto-Deleveraging System. USDT contracts' common insurance fund.
